I just moved to Bengaluru and for the past four nights, I've been waking up in the middle of the night struggling to breathe. Before coming here, I was getting Ayurvedic treatment for Allergic Rhinitis but stopped once I moved. I'm worried if this breathing issue is somehow connected to the Allergic Rhinitis. Could it be related?

View allI'm having this on-and-off cough for a few weeks, and I'm really worried. I had an x-ray, and they saw some infection-like patches on my right lung, but my COVID test was negative. I took some meds like amoxicillin, montelukast, and clarithromycin for five days, then Allegram and Abphyllin SR for another week. The second x-ray looked okay, but I still have cough. Some days it's not so bad, but other days, I've got this chest congestion with white phlegm that's sometimes frothy, sometimes thick. My doctor wants me to keep taking Allegram and Abphyllin for three more weeks. I'm anxious about whether this is enough or if I should do more. Is using a nebulizer something I should consider?
continue as per doctor's advice

I've been having some trouble breathing at certain times during the day, but it's weird because when I'm working out at the gym, I don't have any issues. What could this be? Is it something I should be worried about?
Ecg and x-ray chest pa view is advised to the patient.

My mom's been dealing with some worrisome health issues lately. She has this cold cough and experiences shortness of breath, especially at night. We found out about some lower fibrotic changes in her left lung, but the HRCT and chest X-ray both came out normal. She's already been given some strong antibiotics, but there hasn't been any noticeable improvement. We're located in Ahmedabad and I'm really unsure about what to do next. Can you provide some guidance or suggestions on how to proceed?
I'm sorry to hear about your mom's struggles. Fibrotic changes can sometimes cause chronic symptoms despite normal imaging. Consider consulting a pulmonologist for further evaluation, possibly for inhalers or anti-inflammatory treatments, and to rule out other causes like asthma or GERD. Stay strongshe's lucky to have your care.
